Whole flounder with ratatouille( SERVES 4 )

A whole fish, cooked and served as is, is very normal in France. I love eating fish whole, as you don’t waste anything — the skin is delicious. Flounder is a great fish — an abundant, sustainable species, they require no preparation (no scaling or gutting) and one fish is the perfect portion-size per person.
